Willow Health Media is Kenya’s first independent, digital newsroom dedicated exclusively to health and science journalism. It is a non profit organisation where evidence meets storytelling, turning complex health issues into clear, compelling narratives.
Founded in 2024, Willow was born out of a belief that an informed public is essential to achieving health equity. Like its namesake the resilient willow tree, our work is rooted, healing, and far-reaching.
A seven-year-old’s hospital stay sparked the dream. A young girl’s preventable death made it a mission. Dr Jacqueline Kitulu, first Kenyan President of the World Medical Association, has never looked back.
